FOR. THE SUN. London, June 9G, 1R18• MR. EDITOR,--I was soineWhat surprized at the manner in which you notice the obtrusive speech of the beaten Candidate, Mr. KINNAIIID, the other day on the Hustings, and that you should talk of his cmndour,* in deprecating the mode of attack by an infuriated mob !Too the person of* Sir 11iiarscY iil.axwat.G. Where was this candour, whet) this person or his adherents provoked a hired mob to o v e rwhelm a nd destroy every ~thing-tbat wore the tare of loyalty or law Where was tire candour of alfecting to deplore the artack upon Sir AlnatiAY, whilst every member of the existing Uovcrumeor, and Arnne by namO, were directly pointed out Hnd proscribed, as tit victims for popular rage and vengeanee, thus artificially and thus wickedly excited ? What has the poor deapicable Outcast HuNT done more deserv ing nor hatred and contempt ? What can he do more than single out victims for assassination to a mob, hired, and excited by intoxication, to do the work of their employers ? And who is this• Mr. KINNAI RD, for whom even desperation it self could not pi °three an hundred of the rabble to vote ? ',Who is this mighty Neformer, who holds every man corrupt who is in the public em ploy—and who directs a bribed mob to cut off a t a blow- all tire Public Functionaries of the State ) A Banker f Arid how., it may be asked, has this \yorthy patriot made the money of which he is said o be soproftise, in supporting the Purity of Election? By banking ! And what is banking ? 1 profess tint to understand the mysteries of this calling, but in one conclusion we must inevitably concur—thar Mr. K IN'a %tan is enriched by holding other men's. .propeity.in his !mods, anti that THE PRlNcing thick ime.unjuat s ly charges upon, those who are entrusted with the public nmuey must be truly acted 'Awn by hithsey, or he must he as poor at tire end. of the year as at the beginning. I mean no disparagement to the calling which he follows, in which are engaged sonic of the most honourable characters in the country—hut 1 do protest. against. the infamous and ungrounded charge of corruption against men who faithfully account for every sixpence of the public money" committed to their care, by those who live, and lire like Princes; upon the interest of other men's property. Bit again I mok, who is this man ? We know him but as the brother of a Scotch Batofv; who is Only distinguished from the mass of mankind by having officiously obtruded himself into the intrigues and cabals of BUoNA r %UTE, MURAT, and their associates in tyranny and usurpation ; and this, I Should conceive, will uot furnish the banker with a Letter of Credit upon a British Public ! ,On the contrary, they have dishonoured it (to speak in his own vocation), and turned him, when be presented it, from their doors. And is he now to dictate to those who have thus decidedly registered their opinion of him—or shall the people he turned loose upon the Public Functionaries, like SamrsoN's Foxes, with Firebrands at their tails, to destroy and an nihilate tire. Laws and Institutions of our Forefa thers, to avenge the cause of this disappointed Demagogue I No, Sir ; let Mr. KINNArao stick to his counter, to tyhich he has adapted Iris nobi lity, such as it is ; or if he wishes to let loose tire mob olio!) the property of the mition, let him throw open the doors of his own firm, as a foretaste of the good things he professes to have in store for them. Alas, poor man ! how sickly and ghastly would ire look at the bare proposal of such a scheme l Yet, does he not see that he is arm fog men against himself ; whilst he vainly sup pose.% he may avert their weapons from being em ployed against himself,. Let him rest assured he would not be the last victini to his own rashness and stupidity I Let ORLBANs, let LGALITE, if he have ever heard of such a being, read him a lecture. upon his present folly. But, Sir, if these men, these ByRDETTS and KINNAIRDS, and HUNTS, (for I really can per ceive no line of deniarcation between them, ex cept that the two former are richer, and have the means of wore. effectually corriipting the People,) are to be reprobated for their principles, how much more so arc they to be despised for their incon rsstency? They talk of Purity of Election, -anti de precate all interference with the independent deci sion of People. The experiment was indeed t r i e d, an d the People, left to their independent and Unbiassed choice, REJECTED BURDETT, KINNAIRD, CART,VRIGHT, anti HUNT. The money of the Committees prevented BURDETT from the degra dation of counting votes by units, like his other three Rivals in Patriotism ;- but the Public Voice was clearly and decidedly given against his re•elec tiro! ,‘Vhat. was the . consequence ? Mosley wAsPROCURED, and now may be hereafter ascer tained ; whether from tire Honourable Baronet himself it matters not at present. It was'procnr ed and dispersed, and poured , into public-houses,- with invitations to all wire) would drink and vote. Liquors and Colours were distributed, and Colt - sitiritott, glaring and open-fa Ced, displayed itself, and continues to display itself, in the teeth of those professions of Purity by which we have been deafened - ever since the rise of a Party in the Country, which, from tine beginning, has boasted every characteristic of that Roman Conspiracy so finely recorded by a SALLUST,.and so nobly,blast cd by the vigour of a TULLY ! • Why, I would ask, is that poor creatura'HUNT rejected and spurned by the Burdettites 9 Is there one, trait, one principle, one dogma maintained by him which is not supported. by them ! Has he. uttered one syllable in Spa-Fields which has MA been echoed in Palace-Yard, and re -echoed, though in a minor tone, in the .House of Com mons by BURDETT and the pure COCiIEANg !- But the man - is 'a poor creature,' and a pennyless creature, and be cannot purchase support ! Can you believe, Sir, or wily any man believe, that the mass of the People would reject Alr...fluNT and support,Sir FRANCIS morel's , upon principle? . The thing is not to be credited; HUNT. bas time. ad vantage of hitn ; his principles are tliesame, and 4, !Wc beg leave to correct the mistake of our old and ecteemed Correspondent, whose hand-writing we are glad to Ace again. We to . ver attributed rundour to Mr. KINNAinu .L.ku the occasion alluded to, and did nut rnalie use of the word. We merely said that we trusted " he wits sincere in depre cating stieh C01:1 1 a 3 t3.3; . 0.t o: M e FiRAY IThlre . 1111ptiAellee IMSsiblu) in nitre log them ! The truth is, the Man of the People. (an usurped_title, which, like many others, will be usurped wbeo the harvest is ripe,) cannot bear a rival near his 'Phone. Recollect the fate of poor PAUL. Who fell a victim to the corrupt politics ofthis man's Juoto. Recollect his shyness to Lord Cocit- RANO before he perceived how the mob current would run. Look at that silty old mall C ARTW MGM T, wi,o has been for years identified with him ! Why are these men, I again ask, iejected, and why'are the poll-books so suddenly crowded with the names of Burdettite rot , s ?.--INIoz;;Ey, Sir, MONET ! CORRUPTION, 'mil all the arts which these political puritans charge upon Ministers, are practised by themselves, unblushingly and atro ciously, in open day.—But Mr. HUNT'S moral character stands in his way ! .has be - en re proached and hooted at, or domestic depravity ! Is Sir 'FBANcts so : tem . pure, so very correct in this partirulal , to throw, or at least to direct his Sat4lihi's to throw, the first stone at Mr. fltr.4 Dots he suppose our memories are so t.tiverals as' to have lost all trace of a Trial, where to care his money lie hesitated not to implicate his cluoacter ! %%here the secrets of two fatuities were laid open to the indignation of a Public Court ? The transaction involves a History too dt:grading, to our species to be put anew upon record—but does the pure and immaculate despiser of Mr. (turn. think that these. things are or can be for gotten ! Sir, I am sick of this bilamons, hypoeri tical cant about Public Good and piddic Indepen dence !—the abhorrence of Corruptton—and the profession of Purity, from the stews and jukes of the Country ! This is the moment in which good men and patriotic should shew themselves-- th' should point the moral to the people, and by one vi r e,orons effort shew wit° are the real friend's and supporters of the good old cause by which England has prospered, and become the glory of the world. These wretches. or those whom thin • have made their model, have existed in the Coun try from the earliest dawn of the Constitution— not only have we had out VAT TY LERS aItd JACK STRAWS in remote—but oar WILKES and Liberty Boys in more recent times, who, through every period, have charged Government with corruption ,Jlll kaiL. p o_l.te_y r •-• a 11 yet look .at our Sit Hat 1011 — look at our state of greatness, _vigour, and riches, which have all been atchieVed and obtained in defiance of the opposition, anti in the face olthe Prophecies, of the HU:STITES, By RDETT !TPA , and HONITSS of other times, as well as the . present. Tot: Ituctt appears more likely to prevail at this period than at any former one, because the same game was played with success at the French Re volution, and has given vigour to the hopes of desperation. DESI'ARD, the friend of BURDETT, failed—and was hanged. COBBOTT, the friend of HusiT, Was frightened, and fled his Country ! but all have been working to one en:l—and popu lar delusion is at its height !—lf the time-serving lukewarm defenders of their Country are so blind to what is going forward as to suppose that this delusion will vanish of itself—they are most egre giously, and as they will find . futally, deceived. If they shew not their abhorrence at the proposed assassination of the Public Administrators—if they mark not their horror at the attempt upon the life of a Candidate, and that Candidate a British Naval Officer, a character which has hitherto been held sacred by the very dregs of the Rabble—if they do not take warning by what has already been effected by this same cabal in the City of London and the Borough of Southwark, the period and the chance will no longer 'be in their hands, when the House of Commons is re formed into a Convention—and the Offices of a Republic are seized upon by the advocates of BUONAPARTR, and the copyists of ROBOSPI ER RR.

We received yesterday the Paris Papers of Thursday last, and this morning those of Friday. .The Journals of Wednesday arrived on Saturday afternoon, and were immediately noticed by us in a Second Edition. One of the Papers states, that in consequence of the various reports in circulation respecting the objects of the intended Congress at Aix-la-Cha pelle, the Court of Prussia has thought it right to issue a declaration for the purpose of contradict ing them. The Count de Got.Tz, the Prussian INlinister Plenipotentiary at the Diet of Frankfort, has therefore been directed by his Court to make, in the name of his :....'overeign, a formal declara tion, " that it is not a new Congress in the sense of that of Vienna which Is to ascemble at Aix-la- Chapelle, but fuerdy a wec t l o g of Mouecits that this meeting ‘‘ ill have nothing to do with any exchange of territory; and that, in addi•ion to the strengthening of die ties of friendship be tween the Sovereigns, it will have no other object except to determine upon the attitude to be as sined by Germany, after the evacuation of France by the Allied troops, in order to maintain and secure the genet al tranquillity and peace of Lu rope." The declaration adds, that the assem blage alluded to not being in the form of a Con 7; Kress, but merely a friendly and confidential meet ing, no DiploMatic A g ent from any other Sove •i'eigri or Court will be admitted. The Prussian Legation at Paris has also addressed, in the form of a circular, a similar declaratihn to the other Legations at that Court.—Austria and Ltinsia have likewise made similar declarations. The il7oniteur of Friday publishes officially a Royal Ordonnance, dated the 24ili instant, di tectiug, for the purpose of more effectually abo lishing the Shve Trade, as follows -..--", There shall be constantly stationed on the coast of our Establishmeuts in Africa, a cruiser of our marine, for the purpose of visiting all French vtssels ap pearing olf the shores of our possessions on the said coast, and to prevent all infractions' of our Chdonnauce of the Bth January 18)7, and of our • law of the 15th April ISIS." A ship of the line of 74 guns, name Le Duke de Berry, was launched at Rochfurt on the lt3th instant. A contagious malady, said in some accounts to be the plague, has manifested itself at Cattaro and its neighbourhood. The Duke ot WELLINGTON left .Paris on Mon day morning last for Cambray, but wits expected to return in the course of a few days. The Queen of WuRTEMBERG was safely deliver ed of a Princess on the 17th instant. The Russian General de WI N ZING RODE died suddenly cm the 17th inst. at Wisbaden. From'Chamhery it is stated, that a violent shock of an earthquake occurred at the . tillage of Metz, on the 17th instant, which continued for nearly a minute. • The waters of the Drance, in the Valais, which had been dammed up by the fall of a mass of ice from the mountains, are stated, in an article from Geneva, to have been set in motion by the fall of another mass, and to h►►ve inundeed, in consequence, a considerable track of country, and destroyed several villages. The PORTII is Sdid to be putting in the best state of defence all the places capable of being fortified on the frontiers of Russia and Austtia. FIVE PER CENTS. Wednesday Thursday• 73 f. 4042.

The letter from Paris, which we insert this day, thottrh not of political in►erest, is never thelesi entitled to the particular attention' of all who have any sense of honour, as it shews that the principles of the Ft elicit Revolution have not only debased the character of the new race of Frenchmen in general,. but have totally destroyed that high spirit which animated the tapper classes in France, and more especially the military order. But we find by this letter that even su perior officers, now chiefly of the Revolutionary order, will quietky fitthplit to indignities, and are utterly dead to. the feelings of manly re sentment. Our regular Correspondent in Paris has, we find, been taking an excursion'to Lyons, but as soon as hi returns to the French capital we expect to lye favoured with some in teresting communications , relating to the place which he is uow visiting. We cannot drop this subject without again expressing our dissent from the opinions of that Correspondent, however we may respect his judgment and honOttr his feel iqgs, on the subject of the proposed removal of the Allied troops from France, as we find it to be the general conviction of all whom we have seen who have returned froM that country, that such re moval .would be the sure signal of revolt, and the certain renewal of those horrors that so long dis graced France, and disturbed and alarmed every other State. We have received another printed paper this day in favour of Sir FRANCIS BuIIDETT, and as it SO completely developes the principles and views of his Party, we shall give it at length-, only omitting the places where it is said " Let other noble heat ti assist his bounty to the Electors, and continue to pay their contributions to," &c.
